Thank you for everything. I'll keep an eye on the boards from time to time.
I know it's important to remain positive, and to give support. My spirits are low and some messages are taken literally and misconstrued by myself. Time to take a break.

Cheers,

River.

Thank YOU, River, you are an important part of this community, I personally look up to you and your wisdom, as I'm sure others do too - you will be missed. But... it's important to take a break any time one needs one. 

Looking forward to your return - and enjoy your break! Positive thoughts your way.

River - I've just reconnected with this site.  I took a LONG break from it for the same reasons.  I've really appreciated your messages and wish you well.

Remaining here in spirit, I'll continue to think good thoughts toward you.

Amazing insight you have, one which I'll prompt myself to notice too.

All the best to you, River and family.

enjoy your break. Please pop in once in a while.

Boards are funny that way, I have been a part of them for a long time. I find too much support from them to leave. I have tried!

I used to care but I take a pill for that now.
